gdb: Coalesce/aggregate (async) vCont packets/actions
Currently, with "maint set target-non-stop on", that is, when gdb connects with the non-stop/asynchronous variant of the remote protocol, even with "set non-stop off", GDB always sends one vCont packet per thread resumed. This patch makes GDB aggregate and coalesce vCont packets, so we send vCont packets like "vCont;s:p1.1;c" in non-stop mode too. Basically, this is done by: - Adding a new target method target_commit_resume that is called after calling target_resume one or more times. When resuming a batch of threads, we'll only call target_commit_resume once after calling target_resume for all threads. - Making the remote target defer sending the actual vCont packet to target_commit_resume. Special care must be taken to avoid sending a vCont action with a "wildcard" thread-id (all threads of process / all threads) when that would resume threads/processes that should not be resumed. See remote_commit_resume comments for details. Unlike all-stop's remote_resume implementation, this handles the case of too many actions resulting in a too-big vCont packet, by flushing the vCont packet and starting a new one. E.g., imagining that the "c" action in: vCont;s:1;c overflows the packet buffer, we split the actions like: vCont;s:1 vCont;c Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20, with and without "maint set target-non-stop on". Also tested with a hack that makes remote_commit_resume flush the vCont packet after every action appended (which caught a few bugs). gdb/ChangeLog: 2016-10-26 Pedro Alves <palves@redhat.com> * inferior.h (ALL_NON_EXITED_INFERIORS): New macro. * infrun.c (do_target_resume): Call target_commit_resume.
